Our HW diskarray are gonna be aprox 500gb and we will run raid5 on top
of that.Any considerations i should do if deploying XFS for the server?

Not really though, just use it. Make sure to compile with kgcc on redhat
7.1 or at least gcc-2.95.4 under debian and search out a gcc 2.91.66 if you
can.

That would be the first thing we ask when you have problems.
Don't use raid 5 if database performance is worth something to you.

BTW i seem to get 2 copies of all the mails from this list?

Because I use reply to all.
